OK, so I had an eye exam today. I know my vision is changing but even I can see that the label on my Amaryllis is all wrong. Somehow the tags got switched and I have no idea what variety I'm growing. It's lovely but , due to the lack of a proper nametag, I am calling it Orangina.
I'm suuposed to have an Apple Blossom Amaryllis. Apple Blossom is a white bloom tinged with pink. Just like an Apple Blossom. Makes sense. My Amaryllis is a beautiful salmon/orange color. I'm lovin' it but I don't know what it is. I will enjoy it anyway. A rose by any other name, or without a nametag, would still smell as sweet. And an Amaryllis would be just as purty.
It was downright cold today. Not bad in the direct sun but a smidge breezy and just a li'l too bitter for yardwork. Maybe tomorrow.
